Things to Make and Where to Donate
Again, please check out any charity that you are
considering donating your items to. These might be
tougher to check out with the
BBB but see if they have a forum where folks are
talking about the work they do or just sit down and ask
Spirit to guide you. You will know where and whom
to help.

Put any craft with the words "for Charity" behind it
into your favorite search engine and pages and pages
will come up. It doesn't matter if you are able to
spend a lot of time making many items or just one or two
a year. If you are at all interested in the idea
of crafting for charity you can also look into the
possibilities to help out in your own home town.
Hospitals, Nursing homes, Homeless centers, Crisis
centers, or get together with a few like minded friends
and create your own Charity Group to support whomever
you would like to. Don't forget to check with
military bases or Guard groups if you are interested in
crafting for our soldiers either overseas or here at
home.
If you need help looking for a specific situation or
where to donate your craft
email me and I will do everything in my power to
find the right situation. Crafted items are needed
to warm, bring comfort and even to bring joy into
someone's heart that is feeling like there is no future
in their lives.
As far as food for Charities goes I believe the Feeding
America group, formerly Second Harvest is probably your
best resource for links and ideas. Please visit
them at
Feeding America. |
